Iv tried about everything I can think of but when Im playing online in an edited session (lan or internet) it randomly minimizes and the mouse disappears. if I alt+tab out of it the mouse comes back anyone know how to fix it? I have 2 computers and only one of them does it. is there something that could conflict with it?

Use Ctrl+alt+Del and take Tasks manager.

I have experienced this as well, thought I was the only one lol..

When I try to maximize the TOH window again I just get a black screen, but I can still interact with the game. I can hear myself shooting or running but I can't see anything but the black screen.

*edit*
For me this have never happened in ArmA 2 or OA..

Did you try window mode yet?

-window as startup parameter

This sounds like your graphics drivers crashing, at least AMD/ATI does this to me i Arma when i have unstable overclock or too much undervolt on the GPU.

Did you try setting your video memory in game to normal
